Crans Montana Hike
On the long hike from Leukerbad to Crans Montana, you can expect plenty of sunshine, a breathtaking Alpine panorama and impressive 15th century water pipes.
The seven-hour hike from Leukerbad to Crans Montana begins with the steep ascent to "Varneralp". This is the most strenuous part, because from here it is mostly downhill. The trail leads past alpine inns, which are ideal for snacks. On the way, hikers can enjoy the magnificent view over the Valais Alps and marvel at the diverse alpine flora. A highlight on the all-day tour is the Tsittoret Suone. Suonen are historical water conduits that were already mentioned in the 15th century. In Tsittoret, they channel the water of the Tièche to irrigate vineyards and meadows in surrounding communities.
